Can I set my macbook to install updates at a specific time? My internet is limited through the day but between 2am and 7am it is unlimited?

My internet is limited through the day and I want to know if I can set a specific time for updates to be carried out to make sure my macbook is working efficiently.

Yes. When you get a notification that an update is available, select "Try Tonight". That will constrain the update to occur between 2:00 and 5:00 AM.

  • How do I schedule update dowloads to take place between 2AM and 7AM?

    My internet provider limits me to 200MB of download in a 24 hour period. However, between 2AM and 7AM, I am allowed unlimited downloads. My internet service is provided by Hughesnet Satellite. I do not have access to DSL or other high speed internet. If I exceed the 200MB outside the 2AM to 7AM window, I loose internet access for the next 24 hours. So, it would be beneficial for me to do large downloads and updates during the 2AM to 7AM window.
    I have just switched to a Mac from a PC. My proficiency on the Mac is limited due to inexperience.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, jrmorel

    Look for a download manager that has a feature to do downloads at a specific time.

  • Can I set the computer up to install updates at a specific time?

         We have several apple computers and need to use internet quota in the moet economical way. Downloads would be best installed between 2am and 8am.

    Interesting thought, but would there not be too many unknown factors like network errors timing out downloads?   There again, some updates may not be required or suitable so a catch all instruction would then be inappropriate.

  • Every time I turn on itunes I get an error that says iTunes was installed properly. When I try to uninstall it goes through the motions, but at the end (10-15 minutes later) it says it can't uninstall and gives me an error code of 2330. Can anybody help?

    Everytime I turn on iTunes it say it wasn't installed properly and can't burn CD's. However all my music is there for me to listen to on my iPod Nano.
    I want to unistall iTunes and it allows me to go through the process until about 2% is waiting for uninstall and then I get an error message that says it couldn't complete the uninstall and gives me an error code of 2330.
    Can anybody please help me. iTunes wants to charge $19.
    Thank you.

  • Can you set up an automatic page update based on time?

    I was curious if, in dreamweaver, you can set up a page to
    automatically update at a certain time. For instance, I want the
    home page to replace 2 buttons at 12:30pm on November 3. Is this
    possible? Or do I have to upload a page manually at that time?
    Thanks!

    DW doesn't do that.

  • Where can I download a macbook pro install dvd for my Macbook pro 2.2 because i lost mine...

    Where can I download a macbook pro install dvd for my Macbook pro 2.2 because i lost mine...

    I don't think you can actually download the install DVD. If you call Apple they can send you the install DVD for a nominal fee +S&H. You will need to provide them with the serial number for your Mac to see if it's registered to you.

  • How can I disable notification for new install update for adobe??

    How can I disable notification for new install update for adobe (adobe reader, flash player, etc.)
    Is there way from SCCM2012 or group policy or any easy way?????
    Please help me

    If you mean the built-in functionality of Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash, it's different mechanism for both.
    For the reader, check this guide for example:
    http://www.adminarsenal.com/admin-arsenal-blog/bid/84409/Adobe-Customization-Wizard-XI-Tutorial
    For flash, check this guide for example:
    http://jthys.wordpress.com/2012/07/07/disable-automatic-updates-for-adobe-flash-shockwave-player-reader/
    After you've studied the above guides, you need to implement those to be used with ConfigMgr application deployment so that when you deploy Reader/Flash, you get the result you want = no automatic update functionality.

  • Can you schedule the downloading of app updates to a specific time?

    Can you schedule the downloading of app updates to a specific time?

    I honestly wouldn't do that.  You have no idea if the software update server will be properly functioning then.  Also you should always backup your data prior installing updates. 
    Note when you install updates, you also have the option to install later, but just download first.
    Always make sure the updates work with each other by finding out the requirements from the developer before installing.  A clone backup will let you recover yourself to the point before the install, if you do it right.

  • Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

    Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

    It's probably telling you that you need 1.5 more GB than you have available. Hook up your device to iTunes on the computer you sync with and do the update from there. OTA updates require a lot more memory than ones done via iTunes.

    Hi. Please can anyone show me how to install a flash document / movie into a powerpoint presentation so that the animation plays within the powerpoint? Thanks

    wouldn't it make more sense that a flashtard is someone who
    just generally sucks at flash and asks idiotic questions?
    anyway, so i pretty much got the banner done - but i'm stuck
    on one problem. I made a motion clip of a heart, and i want the
    heart to fall from top to bottom, following a squiggly motion
    guide, and to rotate 1/4 turn on the way. I got it as far as
    following the motion guide, but when i try to select the instance
    in the first frame and rotate it, shouldn't the motion tween make
    it appear to slowly rotate, rather than stay put then rotate 1/4
    turn at the last frame? When I select the clip and play around with
    alpha and stuff, that works fine. What the heck?

    After setting up my new 4S, restoring a backup of my old 3GS, I've renamed the old 3GS in iTunes and then I've changed the content, deleting all my important stuff. Now I'm syncing the old one to my PC. Can I then after that safely backup my NEW 4S - which now holds all my company information and stuff - to  iCloud without risking to lose it?

    Hi Mcchen425,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    As a precaution, I would suggest backing up your iPhone to your computer via iTunes as well as iCloud.  Then you can delete one of your two backups.  The article below will explain all of your options for deleting data or backups from your iCloud storage.

    Can you set a passcode to activate at certain times of the day, say at 930pm, and  turn off again the next morning?

    No, sorry, you can't. The screen lock passcode is either on at all times or it's off.
